"Holy crap!!! Kid, have you lost your mind?!"
Tobirama Senju never imagined that Hirofumi Ito would pull out Susanoo of all things!
Is this kid trying to kill me or what?!
"Jie jie jie jie jie jie…
Lord Second Hokage!
I just wanted you to give me some pointers on my training!
Come on, you've gotta teach me a few more ninjutsu, right?!
Jie jie jie jie jie jie jie…"
As the towering Susanoo advanced toward him, raising a massive fist, beads of sweat formed on Tobirama's forehead…
He knew all too well how terrifying Susanoo was. Back in the day, he'd taken plenty of beatings from Madara Uchiha's Susanoo!
And when he fought Izuna Uchiha, if he hadn't caught him off guard with a Flying Thunder God Slash, there's no way he could've taken down Izuna!
After all, that "evil" Izuna Uchiha was known as a ninja with no weaknesses!
"Damn kid!!!"
Facing the incoming fist of the Susanoo, Tobirama instantly used the Flying Thunder God Jutsu to teleport to a safe spot…
BOOM!!
The spot where Tobirama had just been standing was smashed into a massive crater, with clouds of dust billowing into the air!
"Kid! You're serious?!"
"Of course I'm serious! What, you think I'm joking?! I've got Susanoo out here! Come on, Lord Second, don't hold back—show me some more ninjutsu!"
As Hirofumi's Susanoo raised its fist again, Tobirama had no choice but to get serious!
"Water Style: Water Shockwave!!!"
"Water Style: Water Wall!!!"
Two Water Style techniques barely managed to block the Susanoo's attack. At this point, Tobirama was starting to feel numb!
This damn kid!!!
This naturally evil kid!!!
Why is his Susanoo just as strong as that evil Madara Uchiha's?!
Is this kid's power already that insane?!
Meanwhile, Hirofumi was absolutely thrilled. Heh heh… I just learned two more Water Style techniques!
Jackpot! Total jackpot!!!
Tobirama's a freaking treasure trove!
Tobirama, on the other hand, kept using Flying Thunder God to shift his position.
"Kid! Your Susanoo's strong—almost on par with that evil Madara Uchiha's—but it slows you down!
Under my Flying Thunder God, you can't keep up with my speed!"
At this moment, Tobirama was starting to feel a bit of admiration for the kid.
Sure, Hirofumi had the Uchiha's Sharingan, but he wasn't some "naturally evil" Uchiha brat.
At the end of the day, he was still a kid from the Hidden Leaf!
So maybe he could offer a little guidance…
Hirofumi paused at Tobirama's words, then raised an eyebrow.
Tobirama was right. Susanoo was powerful, but its massive size was a drawback! Against speed-based ninjas, it wasn't that effective. If someone was fast enough to keep running, like Tobirama with his Flying Thunder God, Hirofumi couldn't keep up!
But then, an idea sparked in Hirofumi's mind…
I know Flying Thunder God!
I know Susanoo!
So what if I combine them?!
Why not give it a shot?
"Thanks for the tip, Lord Second Hokage! Gotta say, you live up to your rep! No wonder you developed so many forbidden techniques! Now, let me test out a new jutsu I came up with!
Jie jie jie jie jie jie jie…"
Hearing this, Tobirama got a bad feeling.
This kid didn't actually come up with a new jutsu in such a short time, did he?!
If he did, that's just insane!!!
Hirofumi's Susanoo drew the long blade at its waist!
"Susanoo!!! Flying Thunder God Slash!!!"
WHOOSH!!
In an instant, the massive Susanoo vanished!
Tobirama's eyes widened as he realized what was happening!
Holy crap!!! This kid combined Flying Thunder God Slash with Susanoo?!
That's freaking nuts!!!
Flying Thunder God Slash was already ridiculous—using it with Susanoo?!
Are you seriously trying to chop me in half, kid?!
In a split second, Tobirama didn't have time to think. He pushed every ounce of chakra in his body to the limit!
"Genjutsu: Bringer-of-Darkness Technique!!!"
At the same time, with lightning-fast speed, he scooped up a handful of pebbles from the ground, marked them with Flying Thunder God seals, and flung them out!
He activated Flying Thunder God at top speed!
The Bringer-of-Darkness Technique was something Tobirama had specifically developed to counter the Uchiha's Sharingan. Within its range, even Hirofumi's Mangekyo Sharingan was affected to some degree…
Seizing that brief moment, Tobirama teleported himself out!
The next instant, where he'd just been standing, a massive Susanoo materialized out of nowhere!
BOOM!!
A colossal slash tore through the air, splitting the ground in front of the Susanoo like it had been cleaved apart, leaving a massive trench stretching dozens of meters!
Panting heavily, Tobirama watched the scene.
If he'd been even a split second slower, he'd probably be a pile of soul embers right now!
Damn it!!!
This kid's a total freak!!!
After that strike, Hirofumi immediately dispelled his Susanoo.
He hadn't expected the chakra drain to be that intense. Even with the Uzumaki clan's bloodline, he could barely handle it!
But this gave him new ideas. Maybe he could combine all sorts of ninjutsu in the future.
Like that Susanoo Flying Thunder God Slash just now—or maybe even develop a second version: Sage Art · Susanoo · Flying Thunder God Slash!
That'd probably be even more terrifying!
After landing, Hirofumi took a few deep breaths.
Man, this kind of chakra drain really feels like I'm running on empty!!!
No wonder Kakashi "Fifty-Fifty" Hatake always looks so drained—dude's probably in a constant state of chakra exhaustion…
Madara Uchiha looked at Hirofumi with curiosity.
"Kid, how's your brain even wired?
You actually came up with a jutsu like that?!
I gotta say, I never thought that evil Tobirama's Flying Thunder God could be used like that!
Now you've got me kinda curious about that jutsu…"
